After a two-month construction phase, the new Segnes Trail will officially open on Friday, August 19, 2022. It rides from the Segnes hut to the start of the Runca Trail and is characterized by its varied, natural character.

From rocky to flowing

The red-marked enduro trail is aimed at advanced mountain bikers. It starts at the Segneshütte at 2,100 meters and rides 2.7 kilometers and over 310 vertical metres directly to the start of the Runca Trail. The upper, rocky part of the trail is characterized by the Flims landslide. Towards the Runca Trail, it becomes increasingly flowy and playful. The company "Allegra Tourismus" was commissioned with the construction, which focused on a natural character. Varied elements such as stone slabs, jumps and berms give the Segnes Trail that certain something. With a view of the mighty rock face of the Flimserstein, mountain bikers should be offered a unique riding experience in Graubünden.

Another milestone in the implementation of the "BikeVision"

The municipality of Flims has invested around 300,000 Swiss francs in the new bike trail, and more are already being planned: "Following the construction of the Nagens Trail, the Segnes Trail is now the second of six planned trail projects to be implemented as part of the "BikeVision" in Laax," explains Johannes Schilder, Bike Product Manager at Flims Laax Falera Management AG, adding: "The bike offer in the region will be further expanded with a focus on family-friendly offers and beginner trails with green and blue levels of difficulty."

In future, the Segnes Trail will serve as a link to the Runca Trail via the new Flem Xpress gondola lift as soon as the Flims-Foppa-Naraus chairlift is dismantled. Once the Flem Xpress is completed, the three trails Runca, Nagens and Segnes will be directly accessible by cable car from spring 2025, making the Laax bike trails even better connected.
